We omitted on yesterday to call attention so Order No. 80, to be found in our columns. At* the first glance, perhaps, tho reader will say, “pooh, it only releases certain parties’’ —but we say read on, and not only read, but carefully consider the 3d and 4th para graphs.

Vigilance Com mittees mid self-constituted mentors have played out —or it there arc any ot them lelt, our advice to them is—beware! The mili tary authorities i>iv determined to protect every man in his rights of person and properly —and tho power is ample by which it can be done. Tk« lilut'k Crook in Tlueoii. Tho production of this spectacular drama in Macon, last week, was the cause of con siderable commotion among the pious fraternity of the Journal a- Messenger, which paper characterized the play as abominable, and those who witnessed it as wanting in self-respect. Notwithstand ing, the “Crook” drew full houses, as it docs everywhere. The last fling of the Mes senger—in which the females of Templeton’s troupe are wrongly charged—is thus truth fully answered by the Telegraph, as wc know from personal observation : A contemporary states that on Saturday night the company playing at, Balaton's Hall “acted very disgracefully," etc. We were present at the Hall that evening, aiul noticed there the wives aud daughters of several of our citizens; and it is hul justice to those ladies for as to say that there is an error ill this opinion. Such ladies as witnessed the performance throughout the evening, would not have r-Aiaitied had the performance been of an obscene and disgraceful character. As to the charge of the dancers appearing in a state of almost nudity, we must pronounce it an incorrect state meat.” The play alluded to is the “Seven Sisters,’< full of mcrriirent, but nothing vulgar. It ran for one week in Savannah, and was patronized by many ladies of the highest respectability. Tho Messenger will hardly succeed in ruling tho people of Macon ns regards their amusements. “Oh, wad the power the giflie gie ns. To see nursels as fillers see ns ; It would fra mony a blunder free us. Au’ foolish notion.” [(SacuM/m/t Advertiser. Murder in t'olunibiu, near Thompson, on the ltltli ilist. We have heard rumors for several days past of a murder committed in Columbia, near the village of Thompson, hut preferred awaiting the facts before giving the case to the public. It appears that two colored met—brothers residing in Warren county— had purchased a cow in Columbia county, and paid for her and taken her home. The names of these men were Ruditk Durdin and Tlionia Durdin. On the 16th inst., lour white men—one of them claiming the cow— named respectively Win. Dennis, Lockeit bills and Young, repaired to the house of these colored men and took violent posses- sion of the cow, driving her before them to Mr. Jameß R, Wilson’s house, on tho public road, followed by the two colored men— Rudick and Thomas Durdin—the owners of the cow—and offering to produce the evidence of the fact. These negroes were set upon. Rudick was killed by a blow from William Dennis, and Thomas’ skull broken hy some one, which has siiiqo resulted in his death. A corouer’s jury (so-called) wan sum moned, end after silting upon the case, returned a verdict : ‘‘That the. deceased came to his death by a blow inflicted hy William Dennis”—who has fled to parts unknown ; and the others, Lockett. Sills, and Young, were exculpated as being neither aiders nor abettors of the foul murder. How the jury catne to this conclusion, we cannot at this stand-point conceive. These men, L., S., and Y., were present ; they certainly could have restrained the murder, if they so determined, and we are sure that other evidence must ho produced that will relieve our mind of the judgment we pro nounce, which is, that if Dennis is a mur derer, then Lockett, Sills, and Young, tire’ in the eye of tho law, parliceps criminis, and equally liable to punishment. We hope a thorough military sifting of this matter will he had. and that while we hear so much prating about justice and the majesty of the law, that a thorough work in this case will be performed by tho military, as tve know they are determined to do. t ire iu Sa vfllinnil. A fire occurred on the Southwest corner of Bay and Whitaker streets, Savannah, early yesterday morning, occupied by Mr. 11. J. McDonald on the first floor, and Mr. E. J. Purse’s printing office on the second floor. The entire contents of the first and second stories were destroyed. We regret to leant that in addition to the loss sustained by our friend Poise in the complete destruc tion of his material, there is the additional irreparable damage caused by the loss of valuable manuscripts, among which is the original records of the recent Convention of the Episcopal Church, scot there to be printed. Laud Mink in ITorida. A few days ago nearly two acres of land, on ti farm in Hamilton county, Florida, sud denly sunk to a depth of fifty feet from tho surface of the surrounding grounds, filling with water and submerging the tallest trees. The ground is still sinking, and now covers more than four acres. Streams and crocks lose themselves in the surrounding country and find an outlet in this way. These sinks occur occasionally, but this is the hugest and deepestJtnowrt. Sudden Oinlli. Mrs. Esther Rhodes, widow of Samuel Rhodes, late of Wilkes county, died sud denly on Wednesday evening, the 20th inst., of heart disease, while sitting at tho supper table. Sho was over seventy years of age, and hud been a consistent member of the Baptist Church from early youth. ttueen TliKlU'i HlrtMaT. On this Anniversary of the birthday of the model Queen of Great Britain, we lako occasion to recsll the plesaant reminiscences of the past, with the dates of the most important events of her life, as a tribute due to her as a model wife and mother, os well as a Christian Queen, of whom naught can bo said other than that sho has filled all the spheres of life in which she has taken part, in such manner ns commands tho respect and admiration of the world. The Queen was born on the 24th day of May, 1819, aud enters her fiftieth year this day. On the 20th day of Juue, 1837, ot the early age of eighteen, she was crowned Queen of Great Britain and Ireland, amidst the most gorgeous display of the surround ings of Royalty ever known to the world, mid attended by the nobility and gentry of the country, with tho Privy Council in large array—of the number of whom, sixty five have since paid tho debt of nature. Queen Victoria was united in marriage with Prince Albert (a first cousin), of Saxe- Coburg Gotha, on the 10th day ol February 1840—twenty eight years ago last February, Her marriage was a happy and genial one. The olive branches that have surrounded her table have numbered eight—the names and birthdays of whom are ns follows : 1. Albert Kilward, Prince of Wale*, Nov. !*, 1841—27 years. 2. Princess Alice Maud Alary, April 25, 1843 23 years. 3. Prince Alfred Krncst Albort, August 6, 1844 21 years. 4. Princess Helena Augusta Victoria—May 23, 1848—22 years. 3. Princess Louisa Carolina Alberta, March IS, 1848— 20 years. 6. Prince Arthur William Patrick Albert, May 1, 1850—18 years. 7. l'riuco Leopold Goorgo Duncan Albert, April 7, 1853—15 years. 5. Princess Beatrice Mary Victoria Foodorc, April It, 1857—1 t years. The sad loss to the Queen of her consort) Prince Albert, has borne heavily upon her heart, and possibly has embittered her days. The marriage of her child ren has been happy, and her eldest daugh ter, Princess of Prussia, has six children to gladden the grandmother’s heart, and relieve somewhat her sorrows. Hunt to Believe. The Kanawha Republican i* responsible for the following : ‘‘Abner Fields, of Howard township, in Washington county, had a cow which was delivered of twenty eight calves in one day. The two largest are about the size of ordinary twin calves, the next largest about one half size, and the remaining twenty five about the size of an ordinary rat. They are all dead, mother included, except the two largest, which are doing well. We had the statement above given from Mr. Fields himself, and from several neigh bors of his who witnessed the sight, and who arc as fully entitled to belief as any persons in the world.” AUGUSTA MARKETS.
